For families
Your family deserves a plan, not a crisis.
When loss happens, the people you love should not spend days searching for passwords, policies, and paperwork. KinWell helps you organize what matters now, so they know what to do later.
Before the crisis, not during it.

One place for everything they will need
Know your wishes are documented. Know your family can find them.
Most families delay planning because it feels heavy. KinWell turns it into small, clear steps, so you make progress today and your loved ones are not left guessing tomorrow.
Family document vault
Wills, insurance, accounts, and wishes stored where your family can find them.
Keep wills, trusts, insurance policies, account details, and final wishes in one secure place. A guided dashboard shows what is complete and what still needs attention.
Executor and family access
Name your executor and decide what they can see when the time comes.
Assign fiduciary roles, invite family members with scoped permissions, and optionally share your estate plan with your named executor after a loss. You stay in control of who sees what, and when.
Obituaries, eulogies, and memorials
Write tributes and organize farewell details when your family needs practical help.
Use Scribe to draft AI-assisted obituaries and eulogies, create a farewell checklist, and build shareable memorial pages so your family can honor a life instead of starting from scratch.
How it works
Three steps. One plan your family can actually use.
Step 1
Create your plan
Document your wishes, upload key files, name executors and beneficiaries, and see what your family still needs to prepare.
Step 2
Invite your family
Add spouses, adult children, executors, or trusted advisors. Each person gets access to only what you choose to share.
Step 3
Be ready when loss happens
If you enable share-on-death, your named executor can view the estate plan you prepared. Your family can also use farewell checklists, obituaries, eulogies, and memorial tools inside KinWell.
Why families choose KinWell
What changes when you plan ahead
Your executor knows where to find wills, insurance, and account details without a frantic search.
Family members see only what you allow, which reduces confusion and protects sensitive information.
Obituaries, eulogies, farewell checklists, and memorial pages are available when your family needs them, not assembled from scratch under pressure.
Estate planning progress, documents, and roles live in one place instead of scattered folders, emails, and memory.
Trust and privacy
Your family's information stays private. You stay in control.
You are trusting KinWell with the details that matter most. We built the platform to protect that trust with encryption, scoped access, privacy-first defaults, and SOC 2 Type II certification now underway through Vanta. Full English and Spanish support is built in for multilingual households.
End-to-end encryption
Your family data is encrypted at rest and in transit, with privacy-first defaults across the platform.
Role-based access
You decide who sees what. Each family member gets scoped access to only the information they need.
You own your data
Your family keeps their plan permanently. Accounts are portable, even if benefits or policies change.
SOC 2 Type II underway
We partnered with Vanta to pursue SOC 2 Type II certification. Our security and compliance program is active and progressing toward independent attestation.
